I'm on holiday at the moment and signed up for a dolphin and whale watching trip on the sea. On the day the weather was ****, very windy and cloudy with some drizzle. I was already unusually nervous but when I saw how small our boat was and how much it was moving I basically had a panic attack. I couldn't think of anything but get to the safe land and after that I was sitting there for about 15 minutes breathing deeply.
Now the thing is I tend to be afraid of heights and deep water but never had a panic attack before.
And then I remembered that a couple of years ago I had a past life regression where I saw myself as mentally disabled and local fishermen took me on their boat and pushed me out of it in the middle of a lake. They killed me.
At that time I dismissed it as "my mind probably made up some stories" but now I'm thinking that would/could explain my irrational fear of that small boat.

My first thought was that your knowledge of your past life experience is what caused your panic attack.

Usually you firstly have a panic attack caused by something, then you have a regression that identifies some past life trauma linked to that something, and, by acknowledging this cause-effect, you get cured of future panic attacks.

Well, in all honesty....I would have a panic attack and refuse to go in that situation. I don't like heights, either. I can sense danger quite easily...and that would stop me right there, and I would refuse to go. I don't like deep water, either.

So, it's not too far fetched to say that you aren't alone in those feelings....now it could be a past life trauma..and it could be for me, too. I have memories of being on what looked to be a pirate boat, in the middle of the night during a storm and heavy winds, trying to tie down the sails...and seeing something in the water right next to the boat! I kept trying to get a better look, but with the weather and heavy rain I couldn't....I still think it was some sort of dinosaur that had become extinct, as this took place a really long time ago in my regression. That was my first impression...so I don't like all them critters in the ocean, either....Im afraid I'm going to step on one, lol. I don't mind they live there, but I don't want to be in there with them.

I do believe in reincarnation, and I do believe ALOT of our fears stem from something like that...but also we have fears of the unknown in this life, too...so it really, Imo...doesn't matter if it happened then or now, now is the opportunity to handle the situation and confront it head on...just remember because you feared it...doesn't make you wrong. Like I said, I would have reacted the same way...and you have to trust your instincts, whether they are an immediate threat or not...you can only play your hand at luck so many times before it runs out, so you have to use your better judgement.
